At halftime, North Carolina was down 10-13 courtesy of a last second interception and touchdown by Duke. Cam jumped up from the couch, whooping and pumping his fist in the air.

"No way!" Erica exclaimed. "I can't believe it."

"I told you!" Cam exclaimed as he walked across the common room to recover the pom-poms. "Off with that kit, girl. I want to see a real cheer here. Nothing half-assed." He tossed the pom poms in the general direction of the TV.

Tom also encouraged her to follow-through on the terms of the bet. "A deal's a deal," he said. The prospect of a girl in her underwear was more appealing to him than a boy.

Erica moved across the common room to where the pom poms had landed. She accepted that she was currently losing the bet, but she felt that she had to knock Cam down a couple of pegs. "This will be you in an hour, Cam," she declared with as much confidence as she could muster despite her team losing at the midpoint of the game.

"Yeah, yeah. We'll see," Cam retorted dismissively. "I'll tell you what. If you strip completely naked instead of just to your underwear to do this cheer, I'll make sure that you won't have an audience for the cheer you'll have to perform when North Carolina loses the game. Otherwise, a large group of my friends might be here to see you perform."
